Baylor On Course To Make History

 Last season Texas A&M became the fourth different Texas school to win the NCAA National Championship, Texas (1986), Texas Tech (1993) and Baylor (2005). No other state can make the same claim, Indiana and California have two different teams each. If you look closely, you will also see that a Texas school has won the championship in every decade since it's start, just a little something for you trivia buffs, and now the Baylor Bears has something even more impressive to shoot for.

If they pull this off, the Bears will finish an unprecedented 40-0, no other team has ever won 40 games since they started the Women's NCAA Tournament in 1992 , the closest has been 39-0, Connecticut has done that 3 times, while Tennessee has done it once. To top that off, only 6 teams have ever gone undefeated in the 30 year history of the tournament.
